Summary: Beloved Legend That Is Now Collected Wonderfully
Comment: This is such a beautiful book to own. This really is the definitive King Arthur novel, honestly I wouldn't pick up any other version of the story, but this.
Hundreds of books have been written about King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, but this is just a must have.
Beautiful illustrations and in original fourm.

Summary: much loved book that is hinge-pin for all Grail Lore
Comment: The Bible is the most sold book in print. Unfortunately, a bit of garbage is the second Malleus Maleficarum. However, I wonder if this book comes in third. One wonders if Thomas Malory had any idea how this book would still be a steady seller today? Ah, to the days of writing what you WANTED, in the manner you wanted without an editor coming in and telling you need to remove 20,000 words!
This book has been reprinted endless and one can see why it will continue to be so. And considering all this was writing by hand, not in WORD, it must have taken years to finish. Of course, these days more of his works are translated, but that does not dim the power of his imagery or the wonder of the tales he created. Face it, if Arthur were around he would call Malory his PR man!
Le Morte D' Arthur is likely the best known and most influential work of the Fifteenth Century. The whole Camelot mania began with this book and continues to this day. Why, because it raising values we all would like to achieve, at time when chivalry, honour and justice were valued.
This one volume, complete and unabridged edition is superbly illustrated. A Grail Lore Library is incomplete without a copy. I am sure, even the avid lore addict would love a new copy as a gift for likely is old one is well used.

Summary: only required arthurian reading
Comment: This is the most comprehensive and beautifully written account of the Arthurian saga. It traverses the entirety of Arthur's exploit filled life from birth to his "death", as well as the stories of the most illustrious knights of the Round Table. There is not a single piece of the Arthurian legend (or history to some people) that is not recounted and recounted masterfully. It contains everything, numerous tournaments, conquests of Roman emperors, the tale of the Siege Perilous, and of course, the quest for the Holy Grail. This book will immerse you in the tale of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table to the point where you can hear the swords clashing.
